Hey @urimashi,

feel free to test my rewrite of the mcp25xxfd driver. It's available at:

https://github.com/marckleinebudde/linux/tree/v4.19-rpi/mcp25xxfd-20200211-17

[tayear]

@marckleinebudde Marc, sorry to disturb you, I got the same issue BUG: using __this_cpu_add() in preemptible [00000000] code: irq/70- mcp25xxf/3073.

But when I port your v4.19-rpi/mcp25xxfd-20200429-46 brach, I got some problems such as:

drivers/net/can/spi/mcp25xxfd/mcp25xxfd-core.c:2462:41: error: 'const struct spi_device' has no member named 'controller' const struct spi_controller *ctlr = spi->controller; ^ drivers/net/can/spi/mcp25xxfd/mcp25xxfd-core.c:2464:10: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'const struct spi_controller' if (ctlr->flags & SPI_CONTROLLER_HALF_DUPLEX) ^ drivers/net/can/spi/mcp25xxfd/mcp25xxfd-core.c:2464:20: error: 'SPI_CONTROLLER_HALF_DUPLEX' undeclared (first use in this function) if (ctlr->flags & SPI_CONTROLLER_HALF_DUPLEX)

My kernel version is 4.9.190.

According to this blog: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-can/msg01938.html , you have a patch which can solve this issue. Can you show me that?

Many thanks

Hey @tayear,

if you are on a raspi, please use the latest Raspi OS, it contains the mcp251xfd driver. Otherwise upgrade to a recent kernel. v5.10 is the oldest one that includes the mcp251xfd driver.

If you want to use any kernel older than v5.10, some, probably a lot of patches need to be back ported, you are missing for example: https://github.com/marckleinebudde/linux/commit/8caab75fd2c2a92667cbb1cd315720bede3feaa9

Note: You have stated porting an old outdated driver, that never got mainline. It obviously has bugs. Please don't use that. Use the latest mainline kernel (v5.16) or a recent raspi OS.

[tayear]

@marckleinebudde Thank you for your reply. My board is not raspi, and the manufacturer only provides this old version (4.9.170) kernel. If I update the kernel by myself, I'm afraid I cannot make it work.

It seems there are only two choices for me: 1, back port spi driver, including patches marckleinebudde/linux@8caab75 you mentioned. 2, modify mcp25xxfd driver by referencing a recent one.

[marckleinebudde]

Hey @tayear,

which SoC are you using? v4.9.170 is really, really old.

The mcp251xfd driver will not work out of the box on such old kernels and the old driver you picked is buggy. So you will have to do both, port SPI changes, a recent mcp251xfd driver and some CAN framework changes to your old kernel.

[tayear]

Hi @marckleinebudde

I'm using AllWinner T507. Well... I will contact the angent to check whether a newer kernel is available. If not, can you give me some hints on how to make it? Each of these three parts seems hard for me...(lol).

[marckleinebudde]

Hello @tayear,

You start with a the mcp251xfd from mainline and back port all needed CAN and SPI patches, or you contact someone doing this professionally.

[tayear]

Hi, @marckleinebudde okay. Thank you very much.
